Attention Parents! Yesterday the Wake County school board met to talk about the current school diversity policy. Last night they all agreed that academic achievement, proximity and parental involvement are most important, but they still rejected to totally change the schools current diversity policy. Some say, there is more work to do. Board member Chris Malone made a motion to change the policy which would eliminate socio-economic diversity as a priority for student assignment, but his motion was met with silence. There is a separate proposal from board member Keith Sutton that would keep diversity and attempt to keep students closer to home.
